The story follows Nader, a young public prosecutor, as he navigates his new posting in rural Upper Egypt. His encounter with Huda, a woman fleeing an abusive marriage, sets off a chain of events marked by sectarian tensions and violence. As unexplained killings and arson grip the village, Nader faces challenges from uncooperative locals and a corrupt police force, complicating his quest for justice. Their intertwined struggles highlight the broader themes of ignorance, poverty, and societal conflict, echoing the literary influences of Tawfiq al-Hakim.
